The Powai community got a new sports facility, Emma Sports Academy, which opened over the weekend. The centre, which is located within Hiranandani Complex, behind the Hiranandani Hospital is sprawling and has four tennis courts, two football turfs, a cricket practice field and basketball facilities.

The opening

On Saturday, November 13, evening at the inauguration, chief guest ‘Gulzar saab’ showed off his tennis skills. The legendary poet-lyricist wields a formidable tennis racket on the courts, and at a spry 82, can attribute his fitness to the court game. Gulzar stated at the opening, “Looking at the facilities around me, rather than speaking, one would be better off playing.”
